Description Thomas Horsley 2005-12-27 13:59:38 UTC 
Yast online update seems to be able to find an update mirror quite easily,
but if you want to add a network install source in order to add packages
that are left off of the opensuse CD images, you spend a long time poking
around mirrors, trying to find the exact URL info to tell the yast install
source about.

It would sure be handy if the "add install source" yast page had a
"find me a mirror" button I could push instead of making me tell it
about a specific one I have to dig up on my own.

We will actually try to have the needed mirrors added as installation sources by default for 10.1. Therefore I'm closing this bug WONTFIX now.
